Creating Service Orders in Dynamics AX 2012
Service Orders are an essential part of Service Management, as they are used to manage and analyze the delivery of services to customers. You can create a service orders to schedule pre-planned or unscheduled visits by a service technician to a customer site. These service orders can contain details like the number of hours the technician will visit the customer site for, the type of service or repair to be performed, the item that will be serviced/repaired incl. details about its symptoms and diagnosis and the costs related to the service or repair. So lets see how we can create a service order in Dynamics AX.
For creating service orders in Dynamics AX 2012, you need to first go to the Service Management module in Dynamics AX 2012 (as shown below).
